Mikhail Ivanovich Makhaev
St. Petersburg: Kriga, 2008. Sewn cl. Makhaev's early eighteenth-century watercolors and paintings of Europe's newest captial are valuable as visual documents of the work of the city's first generation of great architects and designers. They are also striking as independent works of art that remind us of the works of Canaletto. Nicely printed on full-page spreads and fold-outs, the illustrations show Makaev to be a first-rate artist of seascapes and an amazingly accurate chronicler of the new port and naval city. 223 p., 28 cm, apporx. 100 b/w illus., Rus.
